Fold (FLD) CTO Thomas J. Dickman Sells Shares to Cover Taxes

What Happened
Thomas J. Dickman, Chief Technology Officer of Fold Holdings, had 18 restricted stock units convert into 18 shares of Fold common stock on May 1, 2026 (reported as a derivative exercise/conversion, transaction code M). To satisfy tax withholding tied to that settlement, 9 of those shares were sold in an issuer-mandated "sell-to-cover" transaction on May 4, 2026 at $1.42 per share, generating $13 in proceeds. The Form 4 was filed on May 5, 2026.

Key Details

  • Transaction dates/types:
    • 2026-05-01: Exercise/conversion of derivative (RSU conversion) — 18 shares acquired (M).
    • 2026-05-04: Open market sale (sell-to-cover) — 9 shares sold at $1.42 each for $13 total (S).
  • Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
  • Footnotes of note:
    • RSUs convert one-for-one into common stock (F1).
    • The 9-share sale was required by the issuer to cover tax withholding and was not a discretionary sale by Mr. Dickman (sell-to-cover) (F2).
    • The RSUs vest over time (one-fourth beginning 9/1/2024, then monthly) and a liquidity event vesting condition was deemed met upon the merger described in the filing (F4, F5).
  • Filing timeliness: Form 4 filed 2026-05-05; appears to be timely (within required reporting window).

Context
This was primarily a conversion of RSUs into common shares followed by a mandatory sell-to-cover to meet tax obligations — a routine, non-discretionary transaction that does not by itself signal insider sentiment. The filing also references an incorporated Power of Attorney (Exhibit 24).
